Reasons for Designation

Bodmin Moor, the largest of the Cornish granite uplands, has long been recognised to have exceptional preservation of archaeological remains. The Moor has been the subject of detailed archaeological survey and is one of the best recorded upland landscapes in England. The extensive relict landscapes of prehistoric, medieval and post-medieval date provide direct evidence for human exploitation of the Moor from the earliest prehistoric period onwards. The well-preserved and often visible relationship between settlement sites, field systems, ceremonial and funerary monuments as well as later industrial remains provides significant insights into successive changes in the pattern of land use through time.

The complex sequence of archaeological remains in this scheduling provide an excellent example of a palimpsest in which the diversity of surviving features demonstrates clearly the succession of prehistoric to post-medieval land use changes on and around Louden Hill. The prehistoric remains show with unusual clarity the multiple phases of settlement and landscape organisation from which they derive, revealing an unusually long development of prehistoric activity. Those remains survive in sufficient detail and scale to show variations through time in densities, forms and distribution of prehistoric settlement and farming systems, together with the important influence of the topography upon them. The inclusion of a range of funerary and ritual structures within that sequence provides valuable insights into the integration of religious, economic and settlement activities among prehistoric communities and attitudes to remains encountered from earlier users of the same land. Of equal importance are the medieval remains in this scheduling, comprising the very rare survival of a tenement's entire medieval boundary system, complete with its longhouse settlement and associated areas of cultivation ridging and improved pasture, barely affected by later modification or reuse. Again the strong influence of the topography is shown well, both in the disposition of the tenement's boundaries, preserving routeways to either side of the hill, and in the organisation of activity within the tenement. The extensive physical survival of this tenement is complemented by the contemporary historical reference bearing on its relationship with the neighbouring common pasture and naming one of its 13th century owners. The value of the remains from all periods on and around Louden Hill is greatly enhanced by the good survival of other multi-period archaeological sites on most sides beyond this scheduling, notably around Roughtor, Brown Willy, Garrow and Dinnever Hill, setting the features within this scheduling in their wider context and allowing the nature and development of landscape organisation to be traced from the prehistoric period onwards over a considerable area of north western Bodmin Moor.

Details

The scheduling includes extensive remains from successive episodes of prehistoric and later activity on Louden Hill and its immediate environs on north western Bodmin Moor. These remains include at least 30 prehistoric funerary and ritual sites of various forms together with multiple phases of prehistoric settlement whose field systems are associated with at least 65 hut circles. Later prehistoric to early medieval stock herding prompted some clearance of earlier features on the south east side of the hill and produced at least ten herdsman's seasonal shelters called transhumance huts. A later medieval settlement established on the east side of the hill occupies a landholding encompassing most of Louden Hill and Steping Hill to the south east, its boundaries defining both the holding and adjacent cross-moor routeways. Post-medieval features include sites of moorstone-working, peat- cutting and a small rabbit warren. The patterning and relationships of the prehistoric features demonstrates a sequence of early land use on Louden Hill. At the start of this sequence is an irregular aggregate field system: a network of irregular plots, commonly 50m-100m across with low wavering walls, which cover much of the hill's west, south west and southern lower and middle slopes, laid out by piecemeal addition across and up those slopes from foci in the troughs west and south east of Louden Hill. The field system also extends across the hill's south east and eastern slopes where, despite some medieval clearance, its layout and character remain clear. Beyond the plots on Louden Hill's south east slope, a detached area of prehistoric field system survives, truncated by medieval pasture clearance, in the low-lying trough to Steping Hill. The irregular field system shows strong biases in the distribution of hut circles within the contemporary settlement with much the most densely occupied focus occurring within the rounded plots on the lower south east slope: of 53 hut circles attributable to this early phase of land use, 35 are clustered along or beside these plots' upper walling, at the interface of the arable and pasture areas. These hut circles are generally small but substantially built, often with inner or outer facing slabs or both and most are levelled, some by terracing on rubble platforms. Some will be ancillary buildings rather than round houses, especially likely in six examples under 4m across internally. Beyond those plots, hut circles are generally well-spaced giving a very low settlement density, biased towards the middle and upper slopes where nine occur on the south east side and six on the west and south west sides; in addition three survive on the eastern upper and lower slopes. Apart from those on the eastern slope, where medieval clearance may have reduced surviving numbers, the low density and mostly higher setting of these more scattered hut circles suggests a role in the pastoral aspects of the economy in this early phase of the hill's prehistoric settlement. The irregular field system also contains localised areas of small low rubble mounds; some occur singly but others form dense scatters in three plots on the western slope. Many may reflect surface-stone clearance during use of the field system, perhaps serving for burial too. However, others occur close to breaks in plot walls, contributing to wider evidence for later prehistoric dismantling of the irregular field system, transforming an enclosed landscape with arable as an important component into a more open landscape appropriate for a predominantly pastoral economy. This scheduling contains at least 26 prehistoric cairns whose size, structure or setting indicates a prehistoric funerary and ritual function, with considerable variation in form and strong biases in distribution with 18 forming a scatter along the hill's middle and lower slopes from the west, through the south west to the south east. Elsewhere in the scheduling, a low cairn is located at the foot of Louden Hill's northern slope and a small cist on the western midslope, while a cairn at the foot of the eastern slope incorporates several natural boulders. The remaining five cairns occur at higher levels: of two small cairns 20m apart on the centre of the hill's spine, the north eastern contains a possible cist; low rubble mounds of two cairns 27m apart crown the hill's northern outcrops, and a small cairn below a rocky scarp on the upper eastern slope has remains of a kerb and central cist. The scheduling also contains four prehistoric ritual sites of other forms. A small ring of spaced slabs adjoins, and may be contemporary with, an irregular plot wall on the southern midslope. On the lower south west slope is a setting of four end-set slabs, up to 0.9m high and arranged as two pairs 5.75m apart. At the foot of the south east slope, is an ovoid rubble platform, 15m north east-south west by 10m wide, terraced to 0.2m high from the slope along its south east edge; it supports two large slabs: the south western is upright, 1.25m high, and the north eastern, 2.55m long, leans almost flat but probably also originally upright giving two prominent standing stones. The fourth ritual site, beside the southernmost summit outcrops on Louden Hill, closes a natural `V'-shaped cleft with a curving rubble bank and traces of an inner facing of edge-set slabs. The more open prehistoric landscape following the slighting of the irregular field system was divided into large blocks by long linear boundaries, part of a wider network of boundaries subdividing north western Bodmin Moor from Roughtor in the north east to Dinnever Hill in the south west. This scheduling contains two such boundaries. The longest extends 853m, from its surviving north west end in the trough to Stannon Down, curving smoothly over the centre of Louden Hill and continuing south east across Steping Hill, fading due to later clearance as it approaches the marsh fringing Garrow Downs. The second linear boundary runs 500m to the south west, visible for 630m north west-south east over the south west of Louden Hill from low lying marsh at each side. It is of very different character, formed by linking successive lengths of the irregular field system's plot walls, resulting in a very sinuous course though the boundary takes a short cut across one plot corner. Also mirroring this prehistoric phase on nearby Roughtor, the settlement pattern contemporary with this opened landscape comprises large well-built hut circles associated with discrete enclosures. Twelve hut circles form a loose linear grouping along 250m of the lower western slope of Louden Hill, extending south from the linear boundary crossing the centre of the hill. Close by on the same slope are two enclosures 220m apart, each imposed on parts of the earlier irregular field system and each strongly lynchetted suggesting that they formed cultivation plots in the expanse of pasture created across the slope. Archaeological and environmental evidence from elsewere shows a general retraction of intensive settlement from the south western moors by the early first millennium BC: abandonment of the settlement with the linear boundaries and enclosures probably corresponds with this. However maintenance of less intensive pastoral activity into the early medieval period in this scheduling is shown by ten small transhumance huts of late prehistoric and early medieval date occupied during summer pasturing of stock on the upland. A related structure attributable to medieval pastoral activity comprises collapsed remains of a small chamber called a beehive hut on Louden's upper eastern slope. Its elliptical chamber, 3.5m by 1.75m internally, is faced by coursed and edge-set slabs; scattered slabs around the wall derive from a domed superstructure. Beehive huts on the open moor, as here, are of medieval date and are a more developed form of shelter than the transhumance huts. Later medieval agriculture had a more substantial impact with the establishment of a settlement on the eastern midslope of Louden Hill by the 1280s: reference to that settlement survives in a court record of 1288 relating to Henry Cauvel of the free tenement of `Lauedon'. The settlement is accompanied by boundaries accommodating its landholding and activities into the area's wider agricultural organisation. The settlement survives with two farmhouses 25m apart, north west-south east, each of a form called a longhouse, aligned downslope and divided into an upslope domestic quarters and a downslope animal (cattle) house called a shippon. North of the southern longhouse is a slender ancillary building subdivided by a cross-wall, located within the shared ground between the longhouses which bears faint cultivation ridging. The medieval tenement is contained within a landholding (a tenement) encompassing most of Louden Hill. Its defining boundary, enclosing a total of 41ha, varies considerably in form, from an earth and rubble bank with an outer ditch on the hill's north west, north east and east sides, to a much slighter bank and sometimes only a single line of stones lacking any visible outer ditch around the west, south west and south sides of the hill; at three points on the west side, the boundary incorporates rather than crosses hut circles to complete its course. The tenement's boundary leaves gaps up to 40m wide from the boundaries of the neighbouring Stannon tenement, to the north west, and a separated area of the Louden tenement on Steping Hill to the south east; these gaps maintained medieval cross-moor routeways after the Louden tenement was defined. Within the core area of the tenement, an embanked droveway runs downslope from the settlement to a break (later blocked) in the tenement boundary. A short gap near the centre of the droveway's north bank is accompanied by the stance of a small structure. Over about 200m north from this droveway lies the tenement's main area of arable cultivation, marked by downslope cultivation ridging extending about 150m-175m east to the tenement boundary from the edge of the denser surface scree, locally called clitter, on the upper slopes. Within this ridged area are numerous small heaps of cleared surface stone, often against boulders too large to remove. Surface rubble was also aggregated to give low discontinuous banks parallel with the ridging, partly defining strip subdivisions of the overall ridged area. A smaller area of faint cultivation ridges extends about 30m south from the droveway, defined to the south in part by a bank and ditch. The tenement's separate area on Steping Hill was also partly cultivated, with some ridging visible near the centre of its area, slighting the prehistoric linear boundary crossing the hill adjacent to it. The pasture on the east and south east sides of Louden Hill will have remained prime grazing for the settlement since much of it lies within the tenement, although it had been cleared earlier in the medieval period: the tenement boundary overrides the clearance debris, pushing its ditch through it, implying the clearance was achieved before the tenement's definition by the boundary. Exclusion of this tenement from rights on the neighbouring commons formed the subject of the court roll of 1288. There is no evidence for continuous occupation of the Louden settlement beyond the medieval period: its abandonment corresponds with a wider reduction in cultivation and decrease in settlement density evident on Bodmin Moor from the late 14th century onwards. Activity at the medieval settlement did not totally cease: a small rectangular post-medieval shelter and stock pen was built into the south west corner of the southern longhouse, reusing the earlier wall- corner. Elsewhere, the dominant post-medieval agricultural regime, the reversion to common pasture, gives few tangible traces but it is reflected in the continued use of the medieval cross-moor routeways to each side of Louden Hill: no longer closely confined by the tenement boundaries, they take less defined courses. Evidence for other post-medieval activity most widely involves moorstone-working and peat-cutting. The many small moorstone-working sites range from widespread scatters of split surface slabs and abandoned roughouts of the intended finished products, most frequently grain and cider millstones, to more intensive but small scale quarrying of large boulders or bedrock outcrops. Stone extraction shows a particular emphasis across the north west flank of Louden Hill. The majority of the hill's stone extraction sites show `wedge' slots along their split edges indicating that most of this activity took place prior to AD 1800, though sporadic sites do occur with drilled splitter's holes denoting later working. Exploitation of peat deposits for fuel has produced several areas of distinctively uneven ground, especially over the spine of Louden Hill and on its south western midslope. Peat cutting near the centre of Steping Hill also produced a large rectangular ditched platform where cut peat, locally called turf, was stored awaiting transport off the moor; another example, ovoid in plan, is located on Louden's upper eastern slope. On the south east slope of Louden Hill is a large irregular post-medieval pillow mound, built to house rabbits kept for food and fur. The mound has a roughly level upper surface with several exposed slabs which may derive from built chambers and passages; it remains actively occupied by wild rabbits. The metalled surface of the modern track is excluded from the scheduling, although the ground beneath is included.
